'I buried my parents one day after the other' - Ebola mourners learn how to grieve safely

In the heart of an Ebola outbreak, mourners are learning to adapt their grieving practices to ensure safety. Large traditional funerals have been discontinued to prevent the spread of the virus, leading to a rush of burials in one cemetery. This shift underscores the importance of public health measures in the face of a deadly epidemic, highlighting the challenges communities face in balancing cultural traditions with the urgent need to protect public health. For families, the process is both heartbreaking and complicated by the necessity of adhering to strict new protocols.
